American Born Desi Complain Too Much | Zarna Garg | What Do You Bring To The Table | Rajiv Satyal #zarnagarg #comedy #indian --- About Rajiv Satyal: Rajiv Satyal is a renowned comedian and host based in Los Angeles, celebrated for his clean, family-friendly comedy that appeals to a broad and diverse audience. He began his stand-up journey in his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio. His entry into comedy was anything but conventional—his first performance took place in a locker room for tennis icon Pete Sampras, who was then ranked number one in the world. Since that unusual start, Rajiv has accomplished several major milestones, including performing before a crowd of 17,000 as the opening act for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He also created the viral video *I AM INDIAN*, which amassed over 100 million views, attracted attention from Bollywood celebrities, and was featured at Modi’s events in Shanghai and Dubai. Rajiv also holds the distinction of being the first comedian to perform a full one-hour stand-up set in India. He has opened for Russell Peters more times than any other Indian comedian and has shared the stage with comedy greats such as Tim Allen, Sebastian Maniscalco, Jo Koy, Kevin Nealon, and Dave Chappelle—most notably opening for Chappelle’s first show after his retreat to Africa. One of Rajiv’s most memorable moments was closing a set at New York’s Gotham Comedy Club right after his comedy idol, Jerry Seinfeld. --- About Zarna Garg: Zarna Garg began her comedy career in 2018 with an open mic in New York City, followed by her first official stand-up show at Carolines on Broadway in February 2019. Her debut romantic comedy screenplay, *Rearranged*, won Best Comedy Screenplay at the 2019 Austin Film Festival and was a semi-finalist in the 2019 Academy Nicholl Fellowships. In 2021, she won Kevin Hart’s Peacock comedy competition *Lyft Comics* and was named the Newcomer Winner at the Ladies of Laughter Awards. In 2022, she appeared on Apple TV’s *Gutsy*, hosted by Hillary and Chelsea Clinton, as one of America’s most fearless female comedians. Her personal story has been featured on *Tamron Hall*, *Today*, and *This American Life*, where she shared how her daughter Zoya inspired her comedy. She later returned to *This American Life* alongside her husband, Shalabh. In 2023, *Variety* listed her among its “10 Comics to Watch.” Her debut comedy special, *Zarna Garg: One in a Billion*, premiered on Prime Video on May 16, 2023, and was recorded at New York’s Gramercy Theatre in September 2022. Jason Zinoman of *The New York Times* described her delivery as “quick set-ups, rapid-fire punchlines,” powered by “the kind of presence that fuels network sitcoms.” Her second special, *Practical People Win*, is slated for release on Hulu in July 2025. Her memoir, *This American Woman*, released on April 29, 2025, quickly became a New York Times bestseller and has earned a 4.57 rating on Goodreads. Zarna also produces and hosts *The Zarna Garg Family Podcast*, which is available across platforms including YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. --- Connect with Rajiv Satyal: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/funnyindian/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/RajivSatyal Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funnyindian/?hl=en X / Twitter - https://x.com/funnyindian Website - https://rajivsatyal.com/ Book Rajiv Satyal for Your Next Event - rajiv@funnyindian.com Video Editor - Satwinder Singh Rajiv Satyal, Zarna Garg, Zarna Garg Interview, Zarna Garg Podcast, Rajiv Satyal Comedy, Rajiv Satyal Comedian, Comedian Zarna Garg, Rajiv Satyal Indian American, Indian American Rajiv Satyal, Zarna Garg Video, Rajiv Satyal Standup, Rajiv Satyal Standup Comedy, Zarna Garg Standup Video, Rajiv Satyal Comedy, Zarna Garg Comedy Video, Comedy Video Zarna Garg, Zarna Garg on India, Zarna Garg Indian Gods, Rajiv Satyal India Comedy, Zarna Garg Comedy Video, Standup Comedy Rajiv Satyal, Zarna Garg Standup,
